Synopsis
Arthur Kipps and Ann were childhood friends. When they were parted Kipps
cut a sixpence in half and told Ann to look at it whenever she missed him.
Years later, Kipps is working as an apprentice in Mr Shalford’s Drapery
Emporium in Folkestone. Ann arrives in the town looking for him. They meet
and re-kindle their childhood friendship. Then everything changes! Kipps
meets Chitterlow and learns he has inherited a fortune. Kipps quits his job
and is drawn into high society where he meets Helen Walsingham and her
family. Kipps asks Helen to marry him but Ann finds out before he has the
chance to tell her. Furious, Ann tells Kipps she never wants to see him again.
After a showdown with Mrs Walsingham he calls off his engagement with
Helen, realising it is Ann he truly loves. Ann forgives Kipps and the pair marry.
But all is not well! Ann just wants a simple life and this causes rows between
the pair. It looks as though the marriage won’t survive until Kipps learns
Helen’s Brother (his financial advisor) has speculated all his money away.
Kipps and Ann are reconciled, realising that all that matters is they have each
other. Kipps comes into money again, but this time he realises that love is
more important and has been all along!
This new version has all the familiar storylines and characters but has been
re-imagined for today’s audiences.
Graham Green - President
Dear Theatregoer,
In geographical terms we have moved only a short
distance from our last show, 'Our House'. From Camden
to just over the Thames and into Kent. In terms of style,
'Half A Sixpence' is a world away from that of a jukebox
musical, going from 'Baggy Trousers' to 'Flash Bang
Wallop', from jukebox to box camera. As always the cast
have worked extremely hard to bring you an evening of musical entertainment
mixed with a splash of humour and dance.
As you will have read elsewhere in the programme, we lost our founder and
very dear friend Nick Clough in the latter part of last year. Nick was an
intelligent and witty man who will be sadly missed but remembered with
affection.
I am very honoured to be following in his footsteps as President of WOW.
We look forward to seeing you at our next production, 'Loserville' in February
2017 or at our birthday celebration which I have planned in August this year.

Faith Rogers - Director
Faith is a past member of WOW! and WAOS where she has
performed in a number of productions and played roles such as;
Fantine in ‘Les Misérables’, Pitti-Sing in ‘Hot Mikado’ and, more
recently, Liesl in ‘The Sound of Music’. She is also a trained dancer,
starting at the young age of 2! Musical Theatre has been a huge
part of her life where she has been lucky to have experienced a wide
variety of opportunities to perform on the stage.She has recently
graduated from the University of Sheffield with a BA (hons) in English
and Theatre where she continued to develop her love for the stage,
not only as a performer but also as a Director. Currently she is living
in London and working for Warner Music, where she is fortunate to be a part of an industry
which will allow her to further her passion. Faith is so pleased to be a part of WOW! again and
working with such a talented cast. It has been a fantastic experience and she would like to thank
the Committee for giving her this opportunity. It has been a delight to be allowed to share her
love for the more classical musicals and bringing Half a Sixpence back into the public eye. Faith
wishes everyone involved the very best of luck and hopes you all enjoy the show!
Louise Lachance - Assistant Director
Louise graduated from Kingston University last year, obtaining her
BA (Hons) in Dance. Since graduating from University Louise has
worked as a freelance dance artist, teaching and performing
across Essex & London both as a solo artist & with her company
Flux Dance Collective. She has performed and trained alongside
practitioners from professional companies such as Candoco
Dance Company, Mathew Bourne's New Adventures and Hofesh
Shector Company and is now studying for her PGCE at The Royal
Academy of Dance. Recent choreographic credits include 'Our
House' (WOW!), ’The Wedding Singer’ (WMT) and The
Producers’ (WAOS). Louise has enjoyed choreographing another WOW! show and exploring a
more directorial role in assisting Faith with this production.
Ben Firth - Musical Director
One of Ben’s first experiences of musicals was playing trumpet for
Half a Sixpence while at secondary school, looking on as his elder
brother performed the role of Kipps. From early brass band
beginnings, which included performing at the Albert Hall in the
National Youth Brass Band Championships, Ben developed his musical
career. His weapon of choice these days, however, being the bass
guitar, playing in a couple of local covers bands. Two positions span thirty years teaching experience; Head of Music at
Rainsford High School, Chelmsford, managing the Enhanced
Curriculum for Performing Arts, then Head of Music at Manningtree
High School, Colchester. Productions musically directed include Oliver, Joseph,(involving
performances at the Civic, Chelmsford and Mercury, Colchester), Guys and Dolls,Grease,
Cabaret, Return to the Forbidden Planet, Little Shop of Horrors, Threepenny Opera, and South
Pacific. He has taken shows to Backnang, Chelmsford’s German twin town, and musically
directed many devised productions under the skilful direction of David Proudlock. A highlight of his career was coaching a very talented chamber choir, the Rainsford Singers, who
performed locally and in the National Festival of Music for Youth final at the Royal Festival Hall.
Ben has enjoyed working with WOW!, nurturing the young talent involved in this production.

In Memoriam - Nicholas Clough (1943-2015)
Half a Sixpence marks the 20th show since the
founding of WOW! After the huge success of WAOS’
Oliver! (with Nick Clough playing Fagin) that year, for
which we had over 90 children audition, we concluded
that there was demand for a theatre group for young
people in Witham. Nick took up that challenge and
founded a society that will see its 20th anniversary in
2016 and has represented a safe and rewarding
musical theatre experience for over 200 young people
over the years. It is easy to forget that many of those
young people have gone on to a professional career in
the theatre and may not have done so had their
interest and talent not been nurtured at WOW! Even
those who don’t choose to make the theatre their
profession have derived huge pleasure from the experience and made life long friends as
a result. The successful development of WOW! alone would have been a fantastic legacy
that most men would have been proud to boast of. However, Nick gave so much more.
As an actor and singer on the Witham stage since the mid 1970s the quantity and
quality of his performances can have been surpassed very rarely. We take for granted his
imperious and arrogant Pooh Bah and other G&S staple roles but let’s not forget his
superb delivery of Fagin, Tevye, Emile de Becque, Captain von Trapp and the King in The
King and I. Nick was a class act but was also willing to help and encourage others. For
many years Nick gave his time and experience freely to WOW! and to WAOS
Committees. His knowledge and experience of people and of amateur theatre have
been invaluable to me as a Chairman and as a friend. His reassuring presence at
meetings helped us get through some difficult and challenging times and we may not see his like again. I know
that WAOS and WOW! and all who knew him will keenly
feel his loss but Nick crammed more experiences and
excitement into his life than most people who lived 20
years longer. In Nick’s memory we dedicate this production of Half a Sixpence but also establish two bursaries to the WOW! Summer School, so that young people who would not otherwise have an opportunity to enjoy musical theatre may experience it for themselves.
I feel sure Nick would have approved.
Stewart Adkins - Chairman of WOW! and WAOS
